Punxsutawney Phil

I don't think I ever knew his full name, but yep, that's the groundhog. Did you know he has his own site? Yeah, me neither. And here's Phil's official forecast (originally in"Groundhogese"(a language only understood by the current president of the Inner Circle) according to the website).

Phil's official forecast as read 2/2/07 at 7:28 a.m. at Gobbler's Knob:

El Nino has caused high winds, heavy snow, ice and freezing temperatures in the west.
Here in the East with much mild winter weather we have been blessed.

Global warming has caused a great debate.
This mild winter makes it seem just great.

On this Groundhog Day we think of one thing.
Will we have winter or will we have spring?

On Gobbler's Knob I see no shadow today.
I predict that early spring is on the way.
